Instructions

Step 1: Pan-fry the chicken. First, add spices on both sides of the chicken - cumin, salt. pepper, paprika and cayenne pepper. Add to pan and saute until cooked through. Add oil the pan as needed. I use a cast iron pan and do not need to add any oil.

Step 3: Make the green goddess salsa or get fresh salsa from the local grocery store.

Step 4: Drain the kidney beans and canned corn, place them in a bowl or container, and set them aside.
